Lyrics
Sittin' lookin' out my window
The streets I see ain't pretty
Sometimes I wonder if I
Was born rich with plenty
Money, and everyday was sunny
Didn't no rain fall
Life was beautiful
Like the colors of a rainbow
Would I be the same Primroe
All my niggas know
If I didn't have to learn
To beat them streets and get that dough
What if I never witnessed killers with my own two eyes
Bust and leave they own folks
Layin' in the street to die
Life, would I respect it
If every second I was shakin'
Cause I injected
Dope in my veins
If I didn't strain
Could I describe pain
Could I describe livin' life
Without desire man
Could I survive
If I couldn't rap or entertain
Alive and free you can't beat it
Who can you blame
My world is like a picture and a frame (and a frame)
The picture might change but the frame stay the same
Hustlin' waitin' on tomorrow
Livin' life in the fast lane
Cause no one ever knows
No one ever knows
Sittin' here waitin' on tomorrow
Puttin' paper away
Cause no one ever knows
No one ever knows
What if you was on the other end of the bullet
When the killer wanna pull it
Would it seem like
The light could flash in front of your face
Or would you run real slow like I ran in my dream life
Just the other day I tried to be
A hero but it wasn't inside of me
Or maybe it just wasn't the time to be
But if the shoe had to fit then I would be
A hell of a game and playin' the part
I bring it all into the light
From out of the dark
I hit the back end of the ball
And out of the park
I deal with the question alone
That's mentally hard
What if you had to live under the bridge
And do anything just to feed your kids
Think about that and the deed you did
The first thing that impressed me kid
Oh yes you did
And I ain't even tryin' to choke the chain
Or pull your leg
And I ain't even tryin' to fuck with your head
And I ain't even tryin' to sweat this shit
Just spit these messages
Cause I'm blessed with this
What if you had the chance to be
Able to switch hands with me
Or anyone you see
And if you really wanna take it deep
This shit like quantum leap
For one and each
And each and all for the sci-fi matic
Go religious, superstitious
Politicians, and all of the listeners wit us
This shit be cold as Christmas
So put your head to the sky
Say a prayer for the sick
And the old, the young, and the weak
For the bums and the single moms
With six kids askin' for some dinner, eat
Hustlin' waitin' on tomorrow
Livin' life in the fast lane
Cause no one ever knows
No one ever knows
Sittin' here waitin' on tomorrow
Puttin' paper away
Cause no one ever knows
No one ever knows
And when you get up
They seem to hold you down
Down to the ground
Gotta stay focused with your eyes open wide
See the sun rise
I keep my hands on the steering wheel
When I'm flipping up 75
Changing lanes on the regular
Talking on the cellular
Feds watching cause they want to take me away
(Feds wanna take me away
Find me if I throw the keys away)
I'm just trying to feed my baby's face
(Just trying to put my paper up
Just trying to feed my baby's face)
But I'm just hustlin'
Hustlin' waitin' on tomorrow
Livin' life in the fast lane
Cause no one ever knows
No one ever knows
Sittin' here waitin' on tomorrow
Puttin' paper away
Cause no one ever knows
No one ever knows
